Coleva vs KeepContact

Coleva is an iPhone personal CRM and relationship journal that organizes short written or dictated entries into memories about people, places, and moments. On-device intelligence extracts people, relationships, dates, and details, with a one-tap undo. A living map shows connections in colour-coded groups, while search can answer plain-English questions from the user's notes. Birthday lead-time reminders and check-in nudges help users follow up. The Free plan is limited to 20 people and includes journal capture, the living map, birthdays, and Ask Coleva. Coleva Plus adds unlimited people, important-date reminders, calendar-synced nudges, AI assist, career and location trails, photo avatars, app lock, and custom map colours. Plus costs $3.99 a month or $39 a year. Notes, diary entries, relationships, and attached photos are stored locally on the iPhone; the maker says it has no server holding user content. Optional Cloud Assist can send limited text or profile information to OpenAI's API when enabled in Settings, and can be turned off. Coleva requires iOS 26.0 or later.

KeepContact is an iPhone personal CRM for people who want to remember relationships and follow up deliberately. Users choose how often to connect with each person, then receive reminders when that interval has passed. Contacts can be grouped into circles such as family, friends, and work; calls and meetings can be recorded with notes, building an interaction history. The App Store listing also names voice memo transcription, business card scanning, relationship statistics, Siri Shortcuts, calendar suggestions, and home screen widgets. KeepContact works offline without requiring an account or login. Its maker says names and notes remain on the device, with optional synchronization through the user's private iCloud, and says the app uses no analytics or advertising trackers and does not upload imported contacts. Contact and microphone permissions are optional. The listing says AI summaries and message suggestions use Apple's on-device model and that notes are not sent to a server. The app is iPhone-only and requires iOS 26.2 or later. Its free plan is free, with up to 15 contacts and three reminders; Pro options include monthly, yearly, and one-time payment plans.
